    “Department of State contractors must certify that they do not operate any programs promoting DEI that violate any applicable anti-discrimination laws and…

    Wow… what cucked language. Can’t even comit to being anti-DEI with that carvout of “no DEI BUT only if the DEI program violates anti-discrimination laws”.

    What anti-discrimination laws? Whose anti-discrimination laws?

      the legal argument against DEI they’re doing is that it discriminates against white men.

        I’m thinking that adding the “any applicable anti-discrimination” part, it invalidates the claim that DEI is denying white cis men jobs. Now there’s a legal back and forth that can happen where somebody wanting to kill a DEI program will have to argue doing things like “putting job postings where X minority community are likely to see them” somehow denying white people jobs first.

          i mean it’s all specious they’re relying on intimidation and/or a ruling from the supreme court confirming unitary executive theory, not legitimate legal arguments

    A senior banker in Paris said he was shocked by the letter. “It’s crazy . . . but everything is now possible. The rule of the strongest now prevails.”

    Hasn’t the EU being doing shit for a long time now? Strong arming companies abroad in the name of “human rights”?

      The rule of the strongest now prevails

      That’s how it’s always been… Just look at current events. Do these people live in alternate realities?
